Painkillers and the Addiction

Many people take pain medicines that have been prescribed by their doctor from an injury or another legitimate reason usually don’t develop a pain medication addiction. However some do become addicted. Statistics show that young people have a better chance to become addicted to pain killers as well as people who may have had an addiction to addicted to other substances in the past or who have a family history of addiction.

What are the signs of addiction :

* Loss of control over the use of medication

* Using medication more frequently by day.

* The taking of medication for other reasons other than pain, such as depression

* Or taking medication that was prescribed for another person

What to Do If You Suspect Addiction?

If you think you a family member or friend may have a problem with addiction, talk to your doctor about this before it gets out of hand.
Addiction Can Be Overcome if action is taken soon.

Overcoming a painkiller addiction requires a doctor’s supervision and may involve using a detox program. After an addicted person has completed an addiction detox along with some therapy, the persons family, friends and doctors all must work together to detect signs of a possible relapse. It might be helpful to become involved with a relapse support group.

Taking care of ones body improves quality and gives a better sense of confidence and well being.
